Alyssa Beyer
Alyssa came to Breast Friends in early 2019 as a volunteer. After spending a short amount of time in the office, she fell in love with the staff and community and decided to officially join the team as Events Coordinator. 2021 presented an opportunity to change focus a bit and work as Patient Support Coordinator, giving Alyssa the opportunity to work more directly with women we serve. She is excited to fulfill her goal of helping other women affected by breast cancer as it is something she planned to do from day one of her own diagnosis. At 37 years old, Alyssa was diagnosed with Triple Negative breast cancer and feels grateful every day to be thriving after treatment. Currently, she is training for her first half marathon and has found running has given her an opportunity to reconnect with herself physically as well as provide a good outlet for stress! Alyssa lives with her husband and 2 sons (ages 10 & 7) in West Linn. She enjoys traveling, good coffee, laughing with her friends and reading Harry Potter with her kids.
